Happy St Georges Day

Recommended Posts

This royal throne of kings, this scepter'd isle,

 

This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars,

 

This other Eden, demi-paradise,

 

This fortress built by Nature for herself

 

Against infection and the hand of war,

 

This happy breed of men, this little world,

 

This precious stone set in the silver sea,

 

Which serves it in the office of a wall,

 

Or as a moat defensive to a house,

 

Against the envy of less happier lands,

 

This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England

 

Happy St. George's day

If only it still was! Like the theory though.
